The N1 comes with silencers for those who can't take it. I used the silencers for about a month because I didn't believe I could ever get used to the mufflers running without. Took em out, got used to the sound and never put them back in.

I am not a fan of the Invidia everyone in my area has them on their car and its some what played but that's just me. Have you looked in Apexi N1 or the Apexi GT spec exhaust?

I would advise against either Invidia exhausts. I used to have the N! and even though i could tolerate it at times, i just got really tired of it. And i don't care what anyone says IT IS RASPY with a test pipe. And so is the Q300. I think it is actually raspier than the N1 when a test pipe is installed. And i know money is an issue but the Greddy SE dual sounds Amzing. It's smooth with zero rasp. And there is next to no drone at all with it. I know a guy that has a CR with the Greddy SE installed. I Love it. Plus it shows good gains. But out of the 2 you have i am going to vote the Exotic speed because it is something different and doesnt sound like a slightly muffled fart can. Although i can only assume because i have never heard it in person. But i know how small the resonator on the invidia is.

Oh, and the not paying twice thing, i'm on my second exhaust thanks to my invidia. Fun for awhile but it got old. I also got tired of the fact that where the mufflers connected it wasnt bolts, it was crappy clamps that occasionally slipped off on the drivers side.
